Bartziokas, of Jasper, Alberta, Canada, spends most of his painting time immersed in the world of winter sports helmets and masks, creating outrageous designs, bursting with swagger and machismo, for hockey goalies and skeleton sliders. “I’ve played hockey my whole life, and goalie is still my position,” he says. “So I know what the client is thinking of and what he envisions.”
